Breaking a vicious cycle.
Despite prodigious advances in tumor biology research, few tumor-biomarker tests have been adopted as standard clinical practice. This lack of reliable tests stems from a vicious cycle of undervaluation, resulting from inconsistent regulatory standards and reimbursement, as well as insufficient investment in research and development, scrutiny of biomarker publications by journals, and evidence ...
متن کاملBreaking the Vicious Cycle of Patent Damages
Patent law is implicitly, and sometimes explicitly, based upon a story of patent infringement in which technology users are presumed to be able to discover relevant patents in advance and either design around them or negotiate patent licenses before using the patented technology.

متن کاملWhen hearts fail so does skeletal muscle: breaking a vicious cycle.
In heart failure, keeping up with the oxygen demands of working skeletal muscles becomes compromised during exercise. As if this situation is not bad enough, as with many aspects of the heart failure syndrome, there are more vicious mechanisms at work. It has been known for some time that skeletal muscle function is also depressed in patients and animals in heart failure. The depression has bee...
متن کاملAging and epigenetic drift: a vicious cycle.
The term epigenetics refers to stable patterns of gene expression that are seen during differentiation or X chromosome inactivation and are not dependent on dynamic changes in coding DNA. These gene expression states are encoded in the epigenome - a collection of marks on DNA or on histone tails that are established during embryogenesis. Genome-wide studies in aging cells and tissues have uncov...
